Jacqueline R. Mendoza Poem
Eternal God was with us
Is with us
Over and over
His love is
Providing for us
Watching us
Forgiving us
Over and over
His love is
In every sense
An undying love
If we believe in this love
It will save us from our sins
Bring us to everlasting life
Heal us from our brokenness
And hardness of heart

Jacqueline R. Mendoza Poem
My story is quite simple
My husband and I had been faithfully
Correctly using birth control for almost 13 years
We’d forgotten it only once
Resulting in the birth of our second child in 2005
However, in spite of proper use
Birth control failed again in 2015
After learning I was pregnant for the 3rd time
My husband and I sat down to discuss our options
What a new child would mean for our family
Money was tight, our marriage was struggling, and at nearly 40
I didn’t feel that I could handle another pregnancy and childbirth
At the end of our discussion
My husband said,
“We’ve never considered this before, but do you want this child?”
I replied simply, “No.”
He said he didn’t either, but that he’d support any decision I made.
At the end of our discussion
Even though it was his child
He recognized that the decision was ultimately mine
Living in Nevada, we didn’t have to deal with unreasonable restrictions
There were no protesters to meet us at the clinic
The only obstacle we faced
No providers in the area took my insurance
We had to pay the $500 out of pocket
I made the appointment for that Thursday
So that I wouldn’t miss any work
Less than a week after discovering I was pregnant
At the clinic
I received a trans-l ultrasound to verify how far along I was: 4 weeks.
The blastocyst was about the size of a sesame seed
Exactly what it looked like
At such an early stage
A medical abortion was my only option
I took the first pill at the clinic
Was told most women don’t start bleeding heavily
Until after taking the second pill the next day
I’m not most women
Started bleeding heavily enough
I had to leave work early Friday
The pain didn’t start until after I took the second pill
It hurt, but was no worse than cramps amplified by food poisoning
I was glad for the pain medication the doctor had prescribed me
Then, it was over
I bled for about 3 weeks and then everything returned to normal.
I admit some initial doubt that we were making the correct decision
Was willing to accept that doubt
After about a year, that doubt has disappeared
During the process
I didn’t feel alone because my husband was right there with me

Jacqueline R. Mendoza Poem
Reverence?
Eternal God, Mother Mary, Father Christ
Measured
How lovingly you respond to Eternal God
People say they pay reverence, Eternal God
Father Christ, Mother Mary
Really?
It is written
Written what?
“Peace in Christ”
Incomplete
Where is “Father” Christ?
Don't have any clue
Talking about
Hypocrite, harsh word
People harsh to Father Christ
Fact that He is the Highest Priest
Why copy?
Copy “For the righteous”
He is Eternal God, “Father” Christ, Mother Mary
People boast, brag
Reverence to Father Christ
Believe in Him
Yet, no “Father” Christ
He’s hurting
Help me propagate
We’ll run over Church
Nothing is written
About reverence
No one knows
Except us
He wants us to propagate it

Let’s do it Father Piers! Let’s go?

Jacqueline R. Mendoza Poem
What is spoon-feed?
Feeding our thoughts
Sincerity, Honesty and Truth
Called Constructive Criticism
Striving to be at our best
Helping because of love
Care
Understanding
Motivated to Construct
Mistakes, Errors, Faults
It is okay
We are not perfect
Why use hell
Instead of Condemned?
Hell is Bulls Eye
Exact place when condemned

Courage animates us
Brings us to life
Makes everything possible
Yet, Courage is the rarest quality in human person

Jacqueline R. Mendoza Poem
Lord Eternal God
Please forgive me if I have Lust or excessive desire for sinful pleasures
Forbidden by the 6th Commandment
Distaste of holy things, perverted conscience
Hatred of Eternal God and complete loss of faith
Please give me Chastity
the behavior of man or woman that is accepted from the moral standards
Guidelines of our culture
It is the opposite of lust
Appreciate Your understanding.

Our Eternal Father who art in heaven hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil, Amen
Hail Mother Mary full of grace, the Lord Eternal God is with you, blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Father Christ
Holy Mother Mary, mother of our Lord Eternal God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, Amen.
Glory be to the Eternal Father, the Eternal Son, the Eternal Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning is now and ever will be world without end, Amen. 1022017

Jacqueline R. Mendoza Poem
A place called Paradise
With Jesus or Father Christ
No more sin
Everybody in one Church
“What Church?”
The Church of Jesus or Father Christ
Catholic or Roman Catholic
Other Christian churches will go
A place called Purgatory
A second chance
To be fully with Jesus or Father Christ
A place called Paradise
He is not the Father
The Father is in Him
He is the High Priest
To a Church called Catholic or Roman Catholic
Catholics call their priest Father
Representing Jesus or Father Christ
Excited to see
All people in one Church
To be with Jesus or Father Christ
In Paradise
